EMF_Running-Guide-Sept-Campaign

We are booking a club weekend in Edinburgh Friday 29th – 31st May for the Edinburgh Marathon Festival

Events available: 5k, 10k, half and full marathon,marathon relay (various distances) and children’s races.We will travel up Friday and you can compete on the Saturday and/ or Sunday, returning Sunday evening (there is an option to stay a further night if people wanted as it is bank holiday weekend). We have been kindly offered 2 mini-bus’s from Richard which worked brilliantly last time. It is a great way to travel and very cost effective at about £15 each return.All this is flexible, but a guideline. You have time on Saturday afternoon to explore and do your own thing and all get together for a meal Saturday if you wish.We are booking accommodation at Musselburgh Travelodge, which is approx £120 for a family room for Friday and Saturday night which can accommodate 3 adults or a family.(http://www.travelodge.co.uk/hotels/206/Edinburgh-Musselburgh-hotel)Past events: 2014 /2012  Photos 2014 / 2012 / 2011
